Komen and Planned Parenthood

Why are all the so called womens' groups up in arms because the breast cancer charity doesn't want to give more money to an organization that doesn't do mammograms? Komen's mission is to defeat breast cancer. If you aren't providing services that contribute to that cause, why would they give you a grant? Any rational person can see that makes sense.

This is not about abortion. Planned Parenthood and their supporters should stop seeing anti-abortion advocates behind every issue.

I'm pro-life, so I support defunding Planned Parenthood for any reason, but this controversy about the Komen Foundation is ridiculous. If PP wants Komen's money, they better add breast cancer screening (i.e., mammograms) to their services. I don't understand why they were getting Komen grants to begin with.
